the best case scenario for you guys is probably the most likely.

kc beats san diego, oakland loses in denver.

kc gets 2 seed
pitt 3
houston 4
oakland 5
dolphins 6

then pitt plays in kc and you guys only play one of them, the winner, at home in the championship week

all this talk of purposely losing to avoid the steelers. arent they locked into the 3 seed? losing would make you have to play them in the divisional rd assuming they beat the dolphins.


yes

but you didnt take into account that if kc beats sd and oakland loses in denver, your entire play is foiled.

or would that not drop new england from the one seed

That scenario is an argument in favor of the pats resting their players next week. In your scenario, the Pats would get the benefit of resting players and getting the #1 seed even with a loss.

i dont think theres much reason to rest starters the entire game. give em at least the first half and see where you sit afterwards.
